My theory of life
I was doing some thinking the other day, and this thought came to me. Also, that philosophy thread got me thinking about this too, so I decided to make my own thread. I thought about this without any reading in either evolution theory or intelligent design, so all of this is coming from no experience with either of these two. If I pretty much sum up one theory, then so be it. Ok here goes....
Science goes a long way in defining the attributes of life's characteristics, from the way we are built, to the laws which dictate our actions, ie physics. When looking at evolution theory, one must assume that in order for beings of today to become, there must have been a building block to which all the elements of science came together.
For example, take something like the ear. Biology spawned the ear, but for biology to spawn the ear, there must have been knowledge of physics either innate or apprehended to allow biology to spawn such a creation. This would require an exact knowledge of sound physics. The ear wasn't just created by nature as simply a tool of evolution, the knowledge needed for this engineering had to be exact.
Which brings me to my next point. How is this knowledge attained? In order for biology to engineer such complex things such as the ear and the eye, there would have needed to be a binding of both physics and biology, because one cannot be a building block without the other. So biology had to have a knowledge base, either a priori or a posteriori.
If biology had a base to collect the knowledge that would allow it to engineer the things it has, what would this knowledge base be? And how would this knowledge base dictate this knowledge to all of the little elements that make up biology (there's a bunch). Is there a base of knowledge per say, and does this base have the ability to learn? Let's take the ear again. Let's say nature learned of the physical laws and has decided to engineer a tool for hearing. Does it learn throughout time and construct a better and better instrument for such an ability? This knowledge base, as well as a learning base, would have to exist out of time and space. It could not exist in this world, for it is an entity that controls the cosmos. It gives it its knowledge and its apprehension to spawn such great achievements only capable through the combination of physics and biology.
If the knowledge of physics and biology was a priori, meaning it is innate, that would mean that there was a plan, and end result, given by a prime mover. Imagine that the building blocks of biology all had the innate knowledge to construct the things it has. The process of which would be evolution, for evolution simply wasn't an aimless voyage of biology, but rather a process to attain its goal given by an a priori knowledge of exact physics. Taking the ear again, the process of evolution to engineer the ear was innate in all of the building blocks in biology, who already had the exact knowledge of sound physics. This knowledge of physics was given to the building blocks in biology, but by who or what.
There had to be a prime mover, something behind the innate knowledge which spawned the building blocks, and allowed the building blocks to spawn the things today throughout the process of evolution. This would make out evolution to be simply a process of aim from a prime mover.
There's no possible way that biology could have engineered the things it has without an exact knowledge of physics. It either had to learn the laws, which would give way to an external force outside of time and space, or biology already had this knowledge, and the process of evolution up to this point was already planned.
